Joe Johnson is a fictional character from the long-running Channel 4 soap opera Hollyoaks, played by James McKenzie Robinson. He appeared throughout 1999 before leaving. He was the son of Jill Patrick and long lost twin brother of Kate Patrick, who he had never known. When Joe arrived in the village, Kate rejected him, but soon warmed up to him. Unfortunately, there was an attraction between them which they could not shake and they shared a kiss. Ruth and her friend Carol Groves spread rumours that they were having an incestuous affair. Kate exacted revenge by stealing Carol's diary and photocopying pages and sticking them in the phone box for everyone to see. She then gave Ruth laxatives before her housewarming party, then hid all the toilet paper, and let all her friends and family in and left them to it. Joe's feelings for Kate grew stronger by the day, and realising that she couldn't cope with being so close to him any more, Kate said a tearful goodbye to Jill, Gina, Sol and Jack before breaking the news to Joe that she was leaving. Joe later left.

Kate and Jill attended Joe's wedding in May 2000.

While recovering in hospital, Mark decides to get even with Luke by calling his brothers to beat him up. Mark and his friends continue to trouble Luke when he is training; however, with help from Darren Osborne (Ashley Taylor Dawson), Luke puts Mark in his place.

During the late night special Hollyoaks: Breaking Boundaries, Mark and his friends beat Luke up in the changing rooms after a football match. The group chase Luke through the streets of Chester.

Eighteen years later, Mark is walking along the river in Chester and is spotted by Luke. Mark is now married and has two children.
